The 10th Carolina Pottery Festival only happens once every 365 days! This year’s Festival will feature more than 100 local and regional potters, showing and selling their work. You can expect to see traditional, contemporary, functional, decorative and sculptural work–something for everyone! Meet the potters who create the work, find out the story behind the pottery which strikes your fancy and enjoy this indoor event at the Cleveland County Fairgrounds.
